Tempature around 97.8 every day

ttaylor1986

Does anyone else have a low temperature? Mine is starting to worry me, I have had a few peaks that went up to 98.7 but that's all it has been a low tempature since after implanting 3 weeks ago. I feel hot all the time though.

You need to call your doctor right this very second.

Anything below 95 degrees is a medical emergency/ hypothermia. I think you need to buy a new thermometer.

Lol. Hope that's a typo.

Anyway, 98.6 Is an average. Pre ovulation temps can be as low as 95.5 I think. My lowest was 95.9.

Lol oops. Yes I meant 97.8 sorry. It was late last night when i posted and I was tired.

haha, I was curious before....my resting body temp is very low- usually around 96/97

DrillSergeantCat

Then you're fine.

ttaylor1986

Ok.. so it's normal to have low temperatures. thanks.

My temp naturally runs low. Nothing to worry about unless it's below 95. I was seriously thinking you were about to die before you edited, though!

Every time I get my temp taken at the drs office its 97.1. So my resting temp is naturally low too. No worries about it!

If you are getting the same exact temp on your thermometer day after day you may need to replace the batteries in the thermometer, but 97.8 isn't too low.

Most people run between 97.6 and 98.8 . It's normal

I have hypothyroidism and my temps run low when my thyroid meds need adjusted. Might be something to look into as baby needs our thyroid hormone through the first trimester. Temps also vary if you don't sleep well/sleep with your mouth open or have cooler sleeping arrangements.

Good point, but 97.8 is not low.

I thought I had a thyroid issue but it turned out I have a vitamin D deficiency instead. It was checked recently.
I also found out Saturday that my hcg levels dropped way low and the other hormone that starts with p was low as well... I'll try again next month
